Elizabeth Oldfield argues that sin is an existential reality, not just a social construct, and that recognizing our own sin is key to living fully. She suggests that sin stems from resisting our relational nature and turning inward. Oldfield shares how intentional community has deepened her discipleship and belonging. Together with Brad Edwards and John Houmes, she discusses the role of sacrifice and obligation in building such communities, highlighting how pastors can convey these values. They also emphasize the need for deep roots and spiritual strength in turbulent times, and the importance of intentional practices to combat distraction and cultivate steady, non-anxious presences.
